Basic training/certification for educators.
The basic training is a two-day course focused on understanding of
basic conceptual systems and the Concept Teaching Model.
The theoretical part explains and elaborates how concepts and conceptual
systems integrated with oral proficiencies are a part of human perception.
Reasons are also given for Nyborg's Concept Teaching Model (CTM ) , its
treatment of partial processes, choice of language and expressions etc.
The practical part gives insight to and practice in utilising the CTM.

Extended courses.
Extended courses are based upon the basic training and practical use
of the CTM for at least one term.
Extended courses deals with native language teaching, maths, other
subjects or teaching pupils with difficulties to learn. Each subject is
a one-day-course.
Work is also in progress concerning basic lectures for six days over
four terms interchange with group- and model-guidance and literature studies.
This allows time for a closer "follow-up" which has proven to be very
important.
